Review on πŸ’» CHUWI CoreBook Pro Windows 10 Home Laptop: 13” FHD 2K IPS Display, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Intel Core i3-6157U Processor | Gray by Lacueva Tranquillity

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Every model I bought came with terrible screen dimming.

When I bought this device I was intrigued by its use of the Huawei Matebook xs LCD panel which was considered to be one of the best screens money can buy so it was crazy to buy a sub $500 computer with the to find the same display. It wasn't until I received the computer that I realized why it was so cheap. The computer was constantly hot and very slow, the display backlight was damaged, while the lag in the upper right corner was uneven and more noticeable, the rest of the screen was too dark and the colors were faded. I later swapped out the computer twice hoping it would have a fixed screen, but they all had the same issues. Most likely, Chuwi bought inferior screens from Huawei and used them in these computers to reduce costs. I would avoid this computer as the quality control was terrible. If you are looking for a cheap computer with a great display then definitely avoid this one as nobody interested in a 3k 4:3 display would want such a terrible backlight.
